Abstract

This research examines the role of social media marketing in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Makassar, Indonesia, employing a case study approach to provide an in-depth understanding of its impact. As the digital landscape evolves, SMEs are increasingly turning to social media platforms to enhance their marketing strategies, engage with customers, and promote their products and services. This study analyses various SMEs across different sectors in Makassar to identify the benefits and challenges associated with social media marketing. The findings reveal that social media marketing significantly contributes to increased brand awareness, customer engagement, and sales growth for SMEs. Businesses that effectively utilize platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter report improved customer relationships and greater market reach. However, challenges such as limited digital literacy, resource constraints, and heightened competition hinder the effective implementation of social media strategies. This research highlights the need for targeted training programs to enhance digital skills among SME owners and employees, enabling them to leverage social media marketing more effectively. By providing insights into best practices and strategies, this study aims to assist SMEs in Makassar in optimizing their social media marketing efforts, ultimately contributing to their growth and sustainability in a competitive marketplace.

Namun, tantangan seperti literasi digital yang terbatas, keterbatasan sumber daya, dan persaingan yang semakin ketat menghambat implementasi strategi media sosial yang efektif. Penelitian ini menyoroti perlunya program pelatihan yang ditargetkan untuk meningkatkan keterampilan digital di antara pemilik dan karyawan UKM, sehingga mereka dapat memanfaatkan pemasaran media sosial secara lebih efektif. Dengan memberikan wawasan tentang praktik dan strategi terbaik, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membantu UKM di Makassar dalam mengoptimalkan upaya pemasaran media sosial mereka, yang pada akhirnya berkontribusi pada pertumbuhan dan keberlanjutan mereka di pasar yang kompetitif.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of Flexible Working Space on Employee Work Productivity at PT. Pelabuhan Indonesia (Persero) Regional 4. The development of technology and the dynamics of the work environment encourage organizations to implement a more flexible workspace concept to improve work effectiveness and efficiency. The research method used is quantitative with an associative approach. Data was collected by distributing questionnaires to employees and analyzed using simple linear regression. The study results indicate that Flexible Working Space has a positive and significant effect on Employee Work Productivity, with a regression coefficient value of 0.244 and a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05). This indicates that the implementation of flexible workspace can increase employee comfort, independence, and work motivation, which directly impacts productivity. This finding aligns with several previous studies emphasizing flexibility's importance in creating an adaptive and productive work environment. However, work flexibility also needs to be balanced with proper management to avoid the risk of decreasing work coordination and accountability.
